Relationships mean nothing anymore. I've tried to build relationships with CAs but they move to other dealers/brands by the time I can be a repeat customer. I have yet to be able to buy two cars from the same CA. I buy two cars every three years on the lease cycle. The best you can do is be loyal to a dealership, but there's huge turnover with the sales managers/general managers too, so likely nobody even remembers or cares about you. At the end of the day, I buy from the dealership with the best price, and that's always a crapshoot. I am always surprised by who will deal and who won't - it varies with the cosmos.
